Abstract

The article focuses on advances in genomic research for livestock improvement, highlighting the use of pangenome assemblies and high-throughput sperm phenotyping. Pangenome assemblies provide a comprehensive catalog of genetic variation across ruminant populations, enabling better understanding of how genomic variants influence phenotypes and supporting improved breeding strategies. Additionally, research on biomarker-based sperm phenotyping aims to identify genomic determinants of sperm defects in bulls, developing label-free, high-speed phenotyping methods using brightfield image-based flow cytometry and machine learning. These approaches seek to enhance fertility testing and broader heritable trait analysis, contributing to sustainable livestock production.
